Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of water conservancy engineering and foundation pit engineering, and relates to an inclined support for riverbank foundation pits. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, in water conservancy projects, foundation pits are often excavated on riverbanks for the construction of sluice gates or bridge piers. Riverbanks typically feature steep slopes, and conventional foundation pit designs often require horizontal internal supports to be installed starting from the lower earthwork side. This results in excessive horizontal deformation of the retaining pile tops on the higher earthwork side, significant earthwork displacement, and cracking of the rear embankment. The traditional solution to this problem is to add a row of piles on the higher earthwork side, transforming the retaining structure there into a double-row pile structure. Summary of the Invention
[0003] To overcome the shortcomings of traditional horizontal internal supports for foundation pits in areas with steep riverbank slopes, which cannot effectively support the high earthwork side and result in excessive horizontal displacement of the top of the retaining piles on the high earthwork side, this utility model provides an inclined support for riverbank foundation pits. This can effectively improve the stress conditions of the retaining piles on the high earthwork side, reduce the horizontal displacement of the top of the retaining piles, and make the entire foundation pit system safer and more reliable.
[0004] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is:
[0005] A type of inclined support for riverbank foundation pits, characterized by comprising foundation pit retaining piles, foundation pit column piles, a capping beam, horizontal supports, and inclined supports. The foundation pit retaining piles are located around the perimeter of the foundation pit, while the foundation pit column piles are located inside the foundation pit. A first capping beam is installed on top of the foundation pit retaining piles, and a second capping beam is installed on top of the foundation pit column piles. The horizontal supports are horizontally positioned inside the foundation pit and connected to the foundation pit retaining piles on the lower soil side, the foundation pit column piles, and the foundation pit retaining piles on the higher soil side. The inclined supports are connected at their upper ends to the capping beams at the top of the foundation pit retaining piles on the higher soil side and at their lower ends to the capping beams at the top of the foundation pit column piles. The inclined supports improve the stress conditions of the foundation pit retaining piles on the higher soil side and reduce the horizontal displacement of the foundation pit retaining pile tops. The capping beams are reinforced concrete continuous beams that connect the pile foundations at the top of the piles.
[0006] Furthermore, the top of the retaining piles is vertically connected to the capping beam via reinforcing bars, and the bottom of the piles enters a relatively stable stratum. The retaining piles are the main body of the foundation pit retaining structure, ensuring the overall stability and safety of the foundation pit. A relatively stable stratum refers to a stratum whose structure and physical and mechanical properties (such as strength and deformation modulus) remain essentially unchanged or change very little within a certain timeframe under specific geological conditions and the influence of engineering activities. A relatively stable stratum can withstand certain engineering loads and external forces under normal conditions.
[0007] Furthermore, the top of the foundation pit column pile is connected to the second capping beam via a vertical steel bar, and the bottom of the pile enters a relatively stable stratum. The foundation pit column pile serves as a load transfer device, ensuring the connection of various components of the foundation pit and bearing the vertical load transferred by the inclined support.
[0008] The lower end of the inclined support is connected to the foundation pit column pile by extending the second capping beam at the top of the foundation pit column pile through a bent steel bar; the upper end of the inclined support is connected to the foundation pit retaining pile by extending the first capping beam at the top of the foundation pit retaining pile through a bent steel bar.
[0009] Furthermore, the inclined support for the riverbank foundation pit includes walers, which are installed on the retaining piles on the high earthwork side of the foundation pit. The horizontal support for the foundation pit is connected to the retaining piles on the high earthwork side of the foundation pit through the walers. The walers are steel beams or reinforced concrete beams that connect multiple retaining piles on the high earthwork side of the foundation pit into a whole.
[0010] Furthermore, the horizontal supports for the foundation pit are respectively connected to the retaining piles on the lower earthwork side, the foundation pit column piles, and the retaining piles on the higher earthwork side by horizontally extending steel bars into the first and second capping beams and the walers. This ensures the overall spatial stability of the foundation pit.
[0011] Furthermore, the waler is fixedly connected to the retaining piles of the high earthwork side foundation pit by means of suspension bars.
[0012] Furthermore, one side of the lifting bar extends into the waler, and the other side is welded to the reinforcing bars of the retaining piles on the high earthwork side of the foundation pit. (The surface of the retaining piles on the high earthwork side of the foundation pit can be partially chiseled open to expose the reinforcing bars for welding).
[0013] Furthermore, the inclined support for the foundation pit is connected to the foundation pit retaining piles, foundation pit column piles, and horizontal support, respectively, to improve the stress conditions of the retaining piles on the high earthwork side and reduce the horizontal displacement of the top of the retaining piles.
[0014] The foundation pit retaining piles, foundation pit column piles, foundation pit horizontal supports, and inclined supports are connected as a whole through the foundation pit retaining piles, foundation pit column pile cap beams, foundation pit walers, and reinforcing bars.
[0015] The main benefits of this utility model are: 1. It effectively improves the stress conditions of the retaining piles on the high earthwork side and reduces the horizontal position of the top of the retaining piles; 2. It does not require setting up a double-row pile retaining structure on the high earthwork side, requiring less space and saving more money; 3. The construction method is conventional and easy to promote. Attached Figure Description

The foundation pit retaining piles, as the main body of the foundation pit support, are set around the foundation pit, including foundation pit retaining piles 1 on the lower soil side and foundation pit retaining piles 11 on the higher soil side; capping beam 3 is set on top of the foundation pit retaining piles, and capping beam 2 12 is set on top of the foundation pit column piles 2; the foundation pit column piles 2, as a load transfer device, are set inside the foundation pit; the foundation pit horizontal support 4 is horizontally set inside the foundation pit and connected to the foundation pit retaining piles 1 on the lower soil side, the foundation pit column piles 2, and the foundation pit retaining piles 11 on the higher soil side. Specifically, as... Figure 1 As shown, the horizontal support 4 of the foundation pit is connected and fixed to the foundation pit retaining pile 1 on the low earthwork side, the foundation pit column pile 2, and the foundation pit retaining pile 11 on the high earthwork side through the capping beam 3, the capping beam 2, and the waler 6; the lower end of the inclined support 5 is connected to the capping beam 2 12 on the top of the foundation pit column pile 2, and the upper end is connected to the capping beam 3 on the top of the foundation pit retaining pile 11 on the high earthwork side, preferably at a 45-degree angle to each other.
[0025] The retaining piles of the foundation pit are vertically connected to the first capping beam 3 via pile reinforcement 7, with the pile bottom entering a relatively stable stratum. The top of the foundation pit column pile 2 is vertically connected to the second capping beam 12 via pile reinforcement 7, with the pile bottom entering a relatively stable stratum.
